A summery vodka cocktail that blends sweet pineapple, juicy strawberry, and tart lemonade with a bubbly splash. Bright, refreshing, and ready in minutes.
1splashGinger ale or lemon-lime sodato top; optional
Icefor shaking and serving
Lemon slices and pineapple chunksfor garnish
Instructions
Muddle the strawberries (if not using purée) in a cocktail shaker until juicy.
Add vodka, pineapple juice, lemonade, and simple syrup.
Fill the shaker with ice and shake for about 15 seconds until well chilled.
Strain into an ice-filled glass.
Top with a splash of ginger ale or lemon-lime soda. Garnish with a lemon slice and pineapple chunk.
For a pitcher: multiply ingredients, stir with ice in a pitcher, and chill 30 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use pineapple vodka for extra tropical punch, or strawberry lemonade for a pink color and more fruitiness. Skip the syrup for a lighter drink. To make frozen, blend everything with ice instead of shaking.
